VY can win games by running, but 1 minor leg injury changes everything if he cannot pass. a Qb can get it done with a non throwing arm injury, a running QB is disabled with a injury to either leg.

Thats why the Titans dont want him running around all the time, 1 slightly sprained ankle and VY can not produce. Not teaching VY to throw and making him scramble will result in a beat up Steve McNair that cannot pass.

Vince didn't win ROY because he tore it up with mad QB skills. He won it because he ran for his life out there. It took the league one season to figure that out and then Vince went into meltdown mode. Bottom line, if the team thought he could win for them we would not be "missing Vince Young" right now.

I really don't understand this whole "the league figured him out" deal. mean are you saying they realized he would run because well he's been doing it forever. And when does it take the entire nfl a whole year to learn how to stop a running qb. all they have to do is leave a spy. Which they started doing earlier in the season. He found ways to get away from that. Vince just wanted to try to be more of a pocket passer. Instead he needs to look to air mcnair highlights and understand thats not him and hes more of a move around throw on the run type of guy. The league never just found ways to shut him down. He just didn't want to run as much. Especially after the injury. He just believes he should be a pocket passer.

I also disagree with the "if the team thought he could win" statement. Rather than dig myself a further hole to most posters, I'll just say I've lost respect for Fisher over the years. I'm not confident he makes the right choices when it comes to players. Over the years it seems to me that Fisher's emotions and feelings have too much impact in personnel decisions. I also think 7.5 million a season is too much to pay a QB (KfC) for simply not making mistakes.

In our last game, the Ravens playoff loss, if Vince had been the QB with 40 seconds to go left in the game, I would've felt we had a chance to comeback and win the game. Ok, I doubt we would have. But it's happened before with Vince. With Kerry, it seemed like game over before those 40 seconds were even played out. It felt like it in the stadium too. I mean, I know it's an almost impossible situation. Kind of rambling thoughts here, but its just something I've thought about.

Vince can be a difference-maker, a game winner. Kerry can manage a game. I'd like to see what Vince could do with CJ, an improved confident Gage, Washington, Scaife/Crumpler, and our current O-line.

He's got to get his head right of course. I just hope the game becomes fun to Vince again, I think that would generate success for him.

Truthfully, I admit I think the chances are much more likely that Vince will not succeed as a starting QB. Seems like too much is stacked against him at this point, and if the Titans don't give him a good chance, then he's not likely to get a better one anywhere else, especially one tailored to his strength.

With kerry in he is a game manager so when the game is on the line he just sticks to his throws. So when there's not a lot of time the game is over because there no time to hand off and no receiver to stretch the field. At least with Vince he could move around and draw some attention and get receivers open. He is not at that level yet but i think if he focuses and everyone gets behind him then he will reach it. Hopefully for this team because he is still my favorite player in the league.

Everyone was always saying it wasn't Vince's fault, it were the receivers. Well when Collin came in, he made our receivers look like Pro Bowlers. Justin Gage had a career year and caught over a hundred yards on the Top 2 Defenses in the NFL.

i disagree, the difference maker here was chris johnson, every team was stacking the box every down against us this year which gave our wrs a lot of single coverage. Nothing Vince couldnt do, handing off the ball is pretty simple and kc didnt exactly put up great numbers either. Give the offensive line some credit too.

You make a reasonable argument if I were just a solitary fan with an opinion.

There is no smoke without fire and many people with way more knowledge than us have weighed in with the same opinion as myself. Kuharsky has way more freedom to speak frankly since joining ESPN and shares the same view.

We'll see what Vince is made of soon enough because his contract forces it.He'll have another opportunity to man up.Will he renegotiate his deal and fight to finish what he started or will he quit again and be cut.

If he doesn't win his job back here he'll be labelled a bust.His numerous apologists will have none of it though and blame the Titans,Fisher andthe media.

All of us fans of the Titans who don't worship Vince will be always be branded as haters.

I'd like to think that I make reasonable points regardless.

I don't think the situation at qb is as bleak as being painted.

I like that I am hearing he is at BSP working with his teammates presently. I haven't heard anything from Fisher except that Vince has to do the things that the team expects (though it sounds as they expect the same things from most of the other players too.) I am glad that they are making Vince compete. (for whatever spot, I don't know. Lot's of things happen in football.) I am in the club of thought that competition always makes the team better.

I think that for the most part, things end up like they do. Time will tell.

Yes, but when we lost Johnson in the Ravens game, Gage came up big and got us down the field.

You know what, I just really think most of the "haters" are full of it.

There are a couple people that have serious doubts but most of them just like being antagonists to those who haven't jumped off the bandwagon yet. And the others had problems with Young from the start.

It's all so stupid and childish...

I mean supposing Young does turn out to be a bust... what good comes out of that?
